Released May 9th in the US.
Filmed entirely in New Jersey.
Based on truths.
The story: As a child, Joe Scaravella had a great love for his mother and grandmother.
He also, along with everyone else in their big family, loved their cooking.
It always brought everyone together, and Joe fondly remembers that time in his life as a really happy time.
Fast forward to present day.
Joe has just lost his beloved mother.
She left him some money and a letter, a letter Joe doesn't want to open because it will mean it is the last thing his mother will ever say to him...
After his best friends try talking him into doing something he would never do before with the money she left him, Joe goes out on his own and decides to buy a restaurant.
But not any restaurant.
Joe's vision is to hire as many "Nonnas" as possible, who love to cook and will cook their most beloved dishes for all who will love and appreciate them.
It's a great idea, but it will cost a lot of money, as well as being quite the task, because Joe and his friends know absolutely nothing about owning and running a restaurant.
